NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)


1.	ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Berkshire Income Realty, Inc. (the “Company”), a Maryland corporation, was incorporated on July 19, 2002 and 100 Class B common shares were issued upon organization. The Company is in the business of acquiring, owning, operating, developing and rehabilitating multifamily apartment communities. As of June 30, 2015, the Company owned, or had an interest in, 14 multifamily apartment communities consisting of 4,345 total apartment units, two multifamily development projects and two unconsolidated multifamily entities. The Company conducts its business through Berkshire Income Realty-OP, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership").

The Company elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under Section 856 of the Tax Code (the "Code"), with the filing of its first tax return. As a result, the Company generally is not subject to federal corporate income tax on its taxable income that is distributed to its shareholders. A REIT is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its annual taxable income. The Company's policy is to make sufficient distributions of its taxable income to meet the REIT distribution requirements. The Company must also meet other operational requirements with respect to its investments, assets and income. The Company monitors these various requirements on a quarterly basis and believes that as of and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, it was in compliance on all such requirements. Accordingly, the Company has made no provision for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company is subject to certain state level taxes based on the location of its properties.

Discussion of acquisitions for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015

On March 2, 2015, the Company, through its subsidiary, BIR Gatehouse, L.L.C., completed the acquisition of Gatehouse 75, a 99-unit multifamily apartment community located in Boston, Massachusetts. The seller was an unaffiliated third party. The purchase price for Gatehouse 75 was $54,125,000 and was subject to normal operating prorations and adjustments as provided for in the purchase and sale agreement. The Company has acquired Gatehouse 75 as a replacement property in an exchange transaction under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code for Yorktowne, which was sold in 2014.

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805-10 requires that identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date. As of the acquisition date, the amounts recognized for each major class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:



	Gatehouse 75
Asset acquired:
Multifamily apartment communities	$	53,485,875
Acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships	639,125
Total assets acquired	$	54,125,000

Liabilities assumed:
Accrued expenses	$	24,248
Tenant security deposit liability	80,082
Total liabilities assumed	$	104,330

Discussion of dispositions for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015

The Company did not dispose of any properties during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On April 10, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which raises the threshold for determining which disposals are required to be presented as discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements. The standard is applied prospectively and is effective in 2015 with early adoption permitted. The Company has elected to early adopt this standard effective with the interim period beginning April 1, 2014. Prior to April 1, 2014, disposed properties are presented in discontinued operations.

Table of contents

On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In adopting ASU 2014-09, companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. Additionally, this guidance requires improved disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.

On February 18, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Amendment to the Consolidation Analysis (Topic 810), which changes the analysis a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. ASU 2015-02 modifies whether limited partnerships and similar entities are variable interest entities ("VIEs") or voting interest entities and eliminates the presumption a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership. ASU 2015-02 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.

On April 7, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (Subtopic 835-30), which requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the associated debt liability. For public business entities, the standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance will be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its financial position and results of operations.

Unaudited interim consolidated financial statements

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited; however, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) necessary for a fair statement for the interim periods have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year. The interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss

For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, comprehensive loss equaled net loss. Therefore, the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Loss required to be presented have been omitted from the consolidated financial statements.

place leases and tenant relationships is determined based on the specific expiration dates of the in-place leases. Value of in-place leases are amortized over the remaining life of the underlying leases. Value of tenant relationships are amortized based on the straight line method of amortization over a 24-month period for residential leases and up to a 72-month period for retail leases.

The Company evaluated the carrying value of its multifamily apartment communities for impairment pursuant to ASC 360-10. The Company did not record an impairment adjustment during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 or the year ended December 31, 2014.

3. INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED MULTIFAMILY ENTITIES

INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

On August 12, 2005, the Company, together with affiliates and other unaffiliated parties, entered into a subscription agreement to invest in the Berkshire Multifamily Value Fund, L.P. (“BVF”), an affiliate of Berkshire Property Advisors, L.L.C. (“Berkshire Advisor” or the “Advisor”). Under the terms of the agreement and the related limited partnership agreement, the Company and its affiliates agreed to invest up to $25,000,000, or approximately 7%, of the total capital of the partnership. The Company’s final commitment under the subscription agreement with BVF totaled $23,400,000, which represented an ownership interest of 7% in BVF. BVF’s investment strategy was to acquire middle-market properties where there is an opportunity to add value through repositioning or rehabilitation.

In accordance with ASC 810-10 issued by FASB, as amended by ASU 2009-17, related to the consolidation of variable interest entities, the Company has performed an analysis of its investment in BVF to determine whether it would qualify as a VIE and whether it should be consolidated or accounted for as an equity investment in an unconsolidated joint venture. As a result of the Company’s qualitative assessment to determine whether its investment in BVF is a VIE, the Company determined that the investment is a VIE based upon the fact that the holders of the equity investment at risk lack the power, through voting or similar rights, to direct the activities of BVF that most significantly impact BVF’s economic performance. Under the terms of the limited partnership agreement of BVF, the general partner of BVF has the full, exclusive and complete right, power, authority, discretion, obligation and responsibility to make all decisions affecting the business of BVF.

After making the determination that its investment in BVF was a VIE, the Company performed an assessment of which partner would be considered the primary beneficiary of BVF and therefore would be required to consolidate BVF’s balance sheets and result of operations. This assessment was based upon which entity (1) had the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of BVF, and (2) had the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of BVF that could potentially be significant to the entity based upon the terms of the partnership and management agreements of BVF. As a result of fees paid to an affiliate of the general partner of BVF for asset management and other services, the Company has determined that the general partner of BVF has the obligation to absorb the losses or the right to receive benefits of BVF while retaining the power to make significant decisions for BVF. Based upon this understanding, the Company concluded that the general partner of BVF should consolidate BVF and as such, the Company accounts for its investment in BVF as an equity investment in an unconsolidated joint venture.

Table of contents

As of June 30, 2015, the Company had invested 100% of its total committed capital amount of $23,400,000 in BVF and had received distributions from BVF of $25,104,682, or approximately 107.3%, of its invested capital. The general partner of BVF is proceeding with BVF's liquidation plan to sell the one remaining asset in its portfolio.

The summarized statement of assets, liabilities and partners’ equity of BVF is as follows:

This amount represents the difference between the Company’s investment in BVF and its share of the underlying equity in the net assets of BVF (adjusted to conform with GAAP). At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the differential was comprised mainly of $583,240, which represents the Company’s share of syndication costs incurred by BVF that the Company was not required to fund via a separate capital call.


(2)	Per the partnership agreement of BVF, the Company’s liability is limited to its investment in BVF. The Company does not guarantee any third-party debt held by BVF. The Company has fully funded its obligations under the subscription agreement as of June 30, 2015 and has no commitment to make additional contributions to BVF.

The Company evaluates the carrying value of its investment in BVF for impairment periodically and records impairment charges when events or circumstances change indicating that other-than-temporary decline in the fair values below the carrying values has occurred. No such other-than-temporary impairment charges have been recognized during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 or the year ended December 31, 2014.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, BVF recorded a net gain on the disposition of thirteen properties. The gain on the sale was $210,092,640, of which the Company's share was approximately $14,707,000 and is reflected in the "Equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated multifamily entities" for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, BVF recorded a net gain on the disposition of fifteen properties.

INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANIES

On March 2, 2011, the Operating Partnership executed an agreement with Berkshire Multifamily Value Fund II ("BVF II"), an affiliated entity, to create a joint venture, BIR/BVF-II NoMa JV, L.L.C. ("NoMa JV"), to participate in and take an ownership position in a real estate development project. BVF II is the managing member of NoMa JV and has a percentage ownership interest of approximately 67% while the Operating Partnership has a percentage ownership interest of approximately 33%.

Also on March 2, 2011, NoMa JV acquired a 90% interest in NOMA Residential West I, LLC. (“NOMA Residential”). NOMA Residential has developed and is operating a 603-unit multifamily apartment community in Washington, D.C. (the "NoMa Project"). The remaining 10% interest in NOMA Residential is owned by the developer, an unrelated third party (the “NoMa Developer”). The governing agreements for NOMA Residential give the NoMa Developer the authority to manage the construction and development of, and subsequent to completion, the day-to-day operations of NOMA Residential. The agreement also provides for fees to the NoMa Developer, limits the authority of the NoMa Developer and provides for distributions based on percentage interest and thereafter in accordance with achievement of economic hurdles.

In accordance with ASC 810-10, as amended by ASU 2009-17, related to the consolidation of variable interest entities, the Company has performed an analysis of its investment in NoMa JV to determine whether it would qualify as a VIE and whether it should be consolidated or accounted for as an equity investment in an unconsolidated joint venture. As a result of the Company's qualitative assessment to determine whether its investment is a VIE, the Company determined that the investment is a VIE based upon the holders of the equity investment at risk lacking the power, through voting rights or similar rights, to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance. Under the terms of the limited liability company agreement of NoMa JV, the managing member has the full, exclusive and complete right, power, authority, discretion, obligation and responsibility to make all decisions affecting the business of NoMa JV.

After making the determination that its investment in NoMa JV was a VIE, the Company performed an assessment of which partner would be considered the primary beneficiary of NoMa JV and would be required to consolidate the VIE's balance sheet and results of operations. This assessment was based upon which entity (1) had the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of NoMa JV, and (2) had the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of NoMa JV that could potentially be significant to the VIE based upon the terms of the limited liability company and management agreements of NoMa JV. Because the managing member owns two-thirds of the entity and all profits and losses are split pro-rata in accordance with capital accounts, the Company has determined that the managing member has the obligation to absorb the losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE while retaining the power to make significant decisions for NoMa JV. Based upon this understanding, the Company concluded that the managing member should consolidate NoMa JV and as such, the Company accounts for its investment in NoMa JV as an equity investment in an unconsolidated joint venture.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company had invested 100% of its total committed capital amount of $14,520,000 in NoMa JV for an ownership interest of approximately 33% and had recorded $1,710,327 of capitalized interest on the investment. The Company has no obligation to fund capital to NoMa JV in excess of its original commitment of capital of $14,520,000. The NoMa Project was completed during the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company had received cumulative distributions from operations of $1,800,000 from NoMa JV, or approximately 12.4%, of its invested capital. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, the Company received $1,333,333 from its investment in NoMa JV.

On July 16, 2014, the Company converted its ownership in Country Place I and Country Place II from a joint venture limited liability company, of which it held a 58% controlling interest, into a tenancy-in-common ("TIC") undivided ownership interest of 58% in each property. Prior to July 16, 2014, the Company consolidated its investment in Country Place I and Country Place II and reported the remaining 42% ownership through "Noncontrolling interest in properties". The Company evaluated the ownership and control rights under the TIC structure and has determined that it would require deconsolidation and the adoption of the equity

method of accounting for its interest in the TIC at carrying value. Accordingly, effective July 16, 2014, the Company recorded its investment in the properties under the equity method of accounting and deconsolidated Country Place I and Country Place II.

On November 14, 2014, the Company completed the sale of its TIC interests in Country Place I and Country Place II to an unaffiliated buyer. The combined sale price of $57,300,000 was subject to normal operating prorations and adjustments as provided for in the purchase and sale agreement. The Company sold its TIC interests in Country Place I and Country Place II in an exchange transaction under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code for Elan Redmond Town Center.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company's residual TIC interest is reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in "Investments in unconsolidated multifamily entities" and the Company's share of net income is reflected in Consolidated Statements of Operations in "Equity in income of unconsolidated multifamily entities".

4. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE

On January 22, 2014, the Company, through its joint venture partnership for the development of the 322-unit multifamily apartment building in Dallas, Texas (the "Prestonwood Project"), entered into a loan agreement totaling up to $31,054,212 for the development. The loan has a variable interest rate of 2.50% above the 1-month LIBOR and matures on January 22, 2017. As of June 30, 2015, the outstanding balance on the loan was $25,623,369, of which $11,880,870 was received during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015.

On July 23, 2014, the Company, through its joint venture partnership for the development of the 141-unit multifamily apartment building in Walnut Creek, California (the "Walnut Creek Project"), entered into a construction loan agreement totaling up to $44,500,000 for the development. The loan has a fixed interest rate of 5.31% and matures on August 1, 2024. As of June 30, 2015, the outstanding balance on the loan was $0.

On November 7, 2014, the Company obtained a promissory note in the amount of $225,554 to fund deposits required to close on the 2020 Lawrence loan modification. The Company repaid $193,554 after the loan modification was closed. The note has a fixed rate of 3.25% and initially matured on December 22, 2014, at which time the maturity date of the remaining balance of $32,000 on the note was extended to March 22, 2015 and subsequently extended to May 29, 2015. The remaining balance of $32,000 was paid off on May 21, 2015.

On February 27, 2015, the Company closed on a $19,990,000 first mortgage and $12,250,000 second mortgage on Elan Redmond Town Center. The first mortgage has a fixed rate of 3.33%. The second mortgage has a variable rate of 1.99% above the 1-month LIBOR. Both first and second mortgages mature on March 1, 2022.

On March 2, 2015, simultaneously with the acquisition of Gatehouse 75, the Company closed on a $36,210,000 mortgage loan to acquire the property. The loan has a fixed rate component of $21,800,000 and a variable rate component of $14,410,000. The interest rates are 3.35% and 1.95% above the 1-month LIBOR for the fixed rate component and variable rate component, respectively. The loan matures on April 1, 2022.

The Company determines the fair value of the mortgage notes payable in accordance with authoritative guidance related to fair value measurement based on the discounted future cash flows at a discount rate that approximates the Company’s current effective borrowing rate for comparable loans (other observable inputs or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the authoritative guidance). For purposes of determining fair value, the Company groups its debt by similar maturity date for purposes of obtaining comparable loan information. In addition, the Company also considers the loan-to-value percentage of individual loans to determine if further stratification of the loans is appropriate in the valuation model. Under this approach, debt in excess of 80% loan-to-value is considered similar to mezzanine debt and is valued using a greater interest spread than the average debt pool. Based on this analysis, the Company has determined that the fair value of the mortgage notes payable approximated $540,619,000 and $482,196,000 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

5. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY - AFFILIATE

On June 30, 2005, the Company obtained financing in the form of a revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility in the amount of $20,000,000 was provided by an affiliate of the Company (the "Credit Facility - Affiliate"). The Credit Facility - Affiliate was amended on May 31, 2007 to add additional terms to the Credit Facility - Affiliate ("Amendment No. 1"), on February 17, 2011 to add an amendment period with a temporary increase in the commitment amount to $40,000,000 ("Amendment No. 2"), and on May 24, 2011 to increase the commitment fee ("Amendment No. 3"). The Credit Facility - Affiliate provides for interest on borrowings at a rate of 5% above the 30-day LIBOR rate, as announced by Reuter's, and fees based on borrowings under the Credit Facility - Affiliate and various operational and financial covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio and a maximum debt service ratio. The agreement had a maturity date of December 31, 2006, with a one-time six-month extension available at the option of the Company. The terms of the Credit Facility - Affiliate were agreed upon through negotiations and were approved by the Audit Committee (which committee is comprised of our three directors who are independent under applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the NYSE MKT LLC) ("Audit Committee"). Subsequent to its exercise of extension rights, the Company on May 31, 2007 executed Amendment No.1 that provides for an extension of the maturity date by replacing the then current maturity date of June 30, 2007 with a 60-day notice of termination provision by which the lender can affect a termination of the commitment under the agreement and render all outstanding amounts due and payable. Amendment No. 1 also added a clean-up requirement to the agreement, which requires the borrower to repay in full all outstanding loans and have no outstanding obligations under the agreement for a 14 consecutive day period during each 365-day period. The last 365-day clean-up period requirement was satisfied on July 9, 2013 and the Company has not borrowed from the Credit Facility - Affiliate subsequent to that date.

On February 17, 2011, the Company executed Amendment No. 2 which provides for a temporary modification of certain provisions of the Credit Facility - Affiliate during a period commencing with the date of execution and ending on July 31, 2012 (the "Amendment Period"), subject to extension. During the Amendment Period, certain provisions of the Credit Facility - Affiliate were modified and included: an increase in the amount of the commitment from $20,000,000 to $40,000,000; elimination of the leverage ratio covenant and clean-up requirement (each as defined in the Credit Facility - Affiliate agreement); and computation and payment of interest on a quarterly basis. At the conclusion of the Amendment Period, including extensions, the provisions modified pursuant to Amendment No. 2 reverted back to the provisions of the Credit Facility - Affiliate agreement prior to the Amendment Period.

On May 24, 2011, the Company executed Amendment No. 3 which limits the total commitment fee provided for in the agreement to be no greater than $400,000 in the aggregate.

On July 31, 2012, the provisions of the Amendment Period, as described above, expired as the Company did not exercise the extension provision to the Amendment Period of the Credit Facility - Affiliate, as provided for in Amendment No. 2. As a result, the specific provisions, which had been modified pursuant to Amendment No. 2, reverted back to the original provisions of the Credit Facility - Affiliate agreement prior to the Amendment Period.

During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not borrow or repay any advances under the Credit Facility - Affiliate. The Company did not incur any interest charges or commitment fees during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 or 2014. There was no outstanding balance under the Credit Facility - Affiliate as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

6. CREDIT FACILITY

On January 21, 2014, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, closed on a $90,000,000 line of credit (the "Credit Facility") with an unaffiliated lender. The Credit Facility provides for interest on borrowings at a rate of 3.75% above the 30-day LIBOR rate, as announced by Reuter's, and includes various operational and financial covenants, including a leverage ratio and a debt service ratio. The Credit Facility has a maturity date of January 21, 2017 and provides for a maximum commitment to the Company of $90,000,000 commencing with the date of execution through June 29, 2014; $75,000,000 from June 30, 2014 to September 29, 2014; $60,000,000 from September 30, 2014 to December 30, 2014; and $45,000,000 from December 31, 2014 to January 21, 2017. The Credit Facility provides for unused commitment fees of 0.50% per annum if the unused amount is equal to or greater than 50% of the applicable maximum commitment and 0.35% per annum if such unused amount is less than 50%.

On June 16, 2014, the Company amended the Credit Facility to extend the date on which the maximum commitment reduces to $75,000,000 from June 30, 2014 to August 30, 2014.

On February 22, 2015, the Company executed an amendment to the Credit Facility agreement which increased the maximum commitment on the Credit Facility from $45,000,000 to $60,000,000 through February 28, 2015, at which time the maximum commitment on the Credit Facility was reduced to $45,000,000.

The Company borrowed $16,000,000 and $80,000,000, respectively, under the Credit Facility and repaid $31,000,000 and $0 of advances, respectively, during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The Company incurred $574,024 and $1,112,900 of interest expense, respectively, and $45,358 and $56,875 of unused commitment fee, respectively, during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. There was $26,000,000 and $41,000,000 outstanding on the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The Company determines the fair value of the Credit Facility in accordance with authoritative guidance related to fair value measurement. Based on the fair value analysis using the same method as described in Note 4 - Mortgage Notes Payable, the Company has determined the fair value of the Credit Facility approximated the outstanding principal balance of the Credit Facility at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Such advances to JV 2020 Lawrence will not be considered contributions of capital to JV 2020 Lawrence. Also, Zocalo is authorized and directed to cause JV 2020 Lawrence to repay such advances, including principal and interest, made by Zocalo at such times as required by the Colorado Energy Loan. Any payments pursuant to the authorizing resolution shall be payable only from surplus cash of the 2020 Lawrence Project as defined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") in the governing regulatory agreement of the primary financing on the project as described above. If surplus cash is not available to satisfy Zocalo's payment obligations under the Colorado Energy Loan, then either Zocalo or BIR 2020 may issue a funding notice, pursuant to the JV 2020 Lawrence limited liability company agreement, for payment obligation amounts due and payable.

For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not have any common stock equivalents; therefore basic and dilutive earnings per share were the same.

During 2014, the Company identified an error in the calculation of EPS from net income (loss) from continuing operations and EPS from net income (loss) from discontinued operations, in its previously reported financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 and the related quarters including the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. This error was a result of incorrectly adjusting net income (loss) when calculating EPS from net income (loss) from continuing operations by the improper noncontrolling interest amount and not adjusting EPS from net income (loss) from discontinued operations by the proper noncontrolling interest amount. As noncontrolling interest related to both continuing and discontinued operations, the noncontrolling interest balance should have been allocated appropriately to continuing and discontinued operations. The Company has determined that this presentation error was not material to any prior periods as filed. The previously issued financial statements have been revised to correct for this error. There was no impact on EPS from net income (loss) available to common shareholders.

The table below shows as previously reported and as revised EPS for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2014:



	Three months ended June 30, 2014				Six months ended June 30, 2014

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to certain legal actions arising in the ordinary course of its business, such as those relating to tenant issues. All such proceedings taken together are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of such legal proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial position or results of operations.

The Company has commitments to two joint venture multifamily development projects as of June 30, 2015. The Walnut Creek Project is a 141-unit multifamily apartment development project located in Walnut Creek, California. The Company will own a 98% interest in the project once fully invested and its current commitment in the joint venture is approximately $26.9 million. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has made capital contributions totaling approximately $25.1 million. The Company consolidates its investment in the Walnut Creek Project.

The Prestonwood Project is a 322-unit multifamily apartment development project located in Dallas, Texas. The Company has a 95% interest in the joint venture and has made a commitment to invest $12.6 million in the project. The Company has no obligation to fund capital to the Prestonwood Project in excess of its commitment of capital of $12.6 million. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has invested 100% of its total committed capital amount. The Company consolidates its investment in the Prestonwood Project.

In connection with mortgage financings collateralized by the Standard at Lenox Park, Berkshires at Town Center and Sunfield Lake properties, the Operating Partnership agreed to guarantee approximately $11.7 million in the aggregate of mortgage debt, at origination, related to its obligation to achieve certain revenue targets at the properties. On March 19, 2015, the guarantee in the amount of $3.0 million on Berkshires at Town Center was released. In connection with the construction loan financing collateralized by the Walnut Creek Project, the Operating Partnership agreed to guarantee approximately $44.5 million, at origination, of construction loan debt. Additionally, the Company has guaranteed payment of the obligation under the Credit Facility, in full, when due at maturity or otherwise.

13. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company utilizes interest rate caps to add stability to interest expense, to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and as required by our lenders when entering into variable interest mortgage debt. Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts if interest rates rise above a certain level in exchange for an upfront premium.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company acquired an interest rate cap related to its investment in Berkshires of Columbia for $258,990. The derivative instrument was obtained as a requirement by the lender under the terms of the financing and limits increases in interest costs of the variable rate debt. The interest rate cap limits that interest exposure on the variable rate mortgage to 4.25% of the total mortgage amount of $44,000,000. The instrument matures on February 1, 2018. The Company has determined that the significant inputs used in the valuation model are observable in active markets, therefore, the Company considers the interest rate cap value of $9,591 and $50,224 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, as level 2 classifications within the fair value hierarchy. The value of the interest rate cap is included in "Prepaid expenses and other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the change in value is reflected in "Interest, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing fees" on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

14. NONCONTROLLING INTEREST IN PROPERTIES

Four of the Company's properties, Berkshires of Columbia, 2020 Lawrence, Walnut Creek and Aura Prestonwood, are owned in joint ventures with third parties as of June 30, 2015. The Company owns interests of 91.38% in Berkshires of Columbia, 91.08% in 2020 Lawrence, 95.00% in Aura Prestonwood and will own a 98.00% interest in Walnut Creek once equity is fully invested.

On July 16, 2014, the Company converted its ownership in Country Place I and Country Place II from a joint venture limited liability company, of which it held a 58% controlling interest, into a TIC undivided ownership interest of 58% in each property. As a result, the Company discontinued the use of the consolidation method of accounting for its investment in the joint venture and adopted the equity method of accounting for its ownership interest in the properties prospectively. Such deconsolidation resulted in the removal of the 42% noncontrolling interest in properties for Country Place I and Country Place II. Please refer to Note 3 - Investments in Unconsolidated Multifamily Entities for additional information on the transaction.

Annual asset management fees earned by the affiliate in excess of the $1,600,000 maximum payable by the Company represent fees attributable to and paid by the noncontrolling partners in the properties. As discussed below, in addition to the fixed fee, effective January 1, 2010, the Company may also pay Berkshire Advisor an incentive advisory fee based on increases in value of the Company that would not be subject to the $1,600,000 maximum.

The Company accrues incentive advisory fees payable to Berkshire Advisor at 10%, which can be increased to 12% from time to time, based on the increase in fair value of the Company above the Base Value established by the Advisor. On May 12, 2014, the Audit Committee of the Company approved an amendment to the Supplemental Plan which allows reissuance of previously forfeited or settled carried interests. The Company has recorded $1,391,213 and $2,673,419 of incentive advisory fees during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Our highlights of the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 included the following:

On January 22, 2015, the Company executed an amendment to the credit facility agreement with an unaffiliated lender ("Credit Facility") (refer to Note 6 - Credit Facility of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on page 16 for further discussion) which increased the maximum commitment on the Credit Facility from $45,000,000 to $60,000,000 through February 28, 2015, at which time the maximum commitment on the Credit Facility was reduced to $45,000,000.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, the Company borrowed $16,000,000 from and repaid $31,000,000 to the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2015, the Credit Facility has a maximum commitment of $45,000,000 and outstanding balance of $26,000,000.

The second mortgage has a variable rate of 1.99% above the 1-month London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). Both first and second mortgages mature on March 1, 2022.

On March 2, 2015, the Company, through its subsidiary, BIR Gatehouse, L.L.C., completed the acquisition of Gatehouse 75, a 99-unit multifamily apartment community located in Boston, Massachusetts. The seller was an unaffiliated third party. The purchase price for Gatehouse 75 was $54,125,000 and was subject to normal operating prorations and adjustments as provided for in the purchase and sale agreement. Simultaneously with the acquisition, the Company closed on a $36,210,000 mortgage loan to acquire the property.

Cash and Cash Flows

As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had approximately $11,030,000 and $4,370,000 of cash and cash equivalents, respectively. Cash provided and used by the Company for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:



	Three months ended						Six months ended
	June 30,						June 30,
	2015			2014			2015			2014
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	3,514,996		$	(781,992	)	$	9,670,955		$	3,145,635
Cash provided by (used in) investing activities	(13,192,838		)	41,093,246			(67,304,567		)	(24,383,487		)
Cash provided by (used in) financing activities	7,785,716			(36,731,327		)	64,294,051			23,574,851

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, cash increased by approximately $6,660,000.

The Company's net cash flow from operating activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 increased by $6,525,000 from the same period in 2014 primarily due to $3,103,000 increase in cash attributable to changes in working capital and $3,050,000 of lower interest expense, partially offset by $1,336,000 lower Net Operating Income ("NOI") (see page 37 for more detail).

The Company's net cash used in investing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 increased by $42,921,000 from the comparable period in 2014 primarily due to $74,669,000 of sale proceeds from property dispositions and $12,580,000 of distributions from its investment in unconsolidated multifamily entities received for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. The Company did not receive any sale proceeds or distributions from its unconsolidated multifamily entities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015. The increase was also due to capital expenditures of $25,414,000 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $11,914,000 during the comparable period in 2014. The increase was partially offset by $11,921,000 returned from the restricted cash held in escrow for 1031 exchange in 2015 as compared to $40,835,000 deposited in 2014, and $54,021,000 used for acquisition of Gatehouse 75 in 2015 as compared to $60,611,000 used for acquisitions of Pavilion Townplace, EON at Lindbergh and Aura Prestonwood in 2014.

The Company's net cash from financing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 increased by $40,719,000 from the same period in 2014, primarily due to net cash borrowing from mortgage notes of $78,287,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to net cash payment to mortgage notes of $27,998,000 in the same period of 2014, aggregate distributions of $975,000 made during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $21,362,000 made during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. The Company also borrowed from note payable - affiliate of $5,800,000 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 and did not borrow any advances from the note in the same period of 2014. The increase was offset by net payment to the Credit Facility of $15,000,000 in 2015 as compared to net borrowing from the Credit Facility of $80,000,000 in 2014.

The Company's principal liquidity demands are expected to be distributions to our preferred and common shareholders and Operating Partnership unitholders based on availability of cash and approval of the Board, capital improvements, rehabilitation projects and repairs and maintenance for the properties, debt repayment, ongoing development projects and acquisition and development of additional properties within the investment restrictions placed on it by BVF III.

The Company intends to meet its short-term liquidity requirements through net cash flows provided by operating activities and advances from the credit facilities. The Company considers its ability to generate cash to be adequate to meet all operating requirements and make distributions to its preferred stockholders in accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to REITs. Funds required to make distributions to our preferred shareholders that are not provided by operating activities will be supplemented by property debt financing and refinancing activities, property sales and advances on the credit facilities. Funds required to make distributions to common shareholders and Operating Partnership unitholders are funded by operating, sales and refinancing proceeds.

The Company intends to meet its long-term liquidity requirements through property sales and property debt financing and refinancing, noting that possible interest rate increases could negatively impact the Company's ability to refinance existing debt at acceptable rates. As of June 30, 2015, approximately $168,049,000 of principal, or 30.7% of the Company’s outstanding mortgage debt, is due to be repaid by December 31, 2017. During that period, principal of $0, $60,748,000 and $62,863,000 relates to loans that are due to mature and be repaid in full in 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. All other payments of principal during the three-year period are normal recurring monthly payments in accordance with the loan amortization schedules. The

Company expects to fund any maturing mortgages through refinancing of such mortgages or through the sale of the related properties. Additionally, the Company may seek to expand its purchasing power through the use of joint venture relationships with other companies with liquidity.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company has fixed interest rate mortgage financing on all properties in the portfolio with the exception of Berkshires of Columbia, Aura Prestonwood, Elan Redmond Town Center and Gatehouse 75, which have variable interest rate debt. The construction loan of Walnut Creek has no outstanding balance as of June 30, 2015.

On June 12, 2012, Zocalo Community Development, Inc. ("Zocalo"), the managing member of the joint venture ("JV 2020 Lawrence") of the Operating Partnership's subsidiary, BIR 2020 Lawrence, L.L.C. ("BIR 2020") with Zocalo and JB 2020, LLC, entered into a financing agreement with the State of Colorado, through the Colorado Energy Office, for $1,250,000 (the "Colorado Energy Loan") to be used for inclusion of energy efficient components in the construction of JV 2020 Lawrence's multifamily apartment building (the "2020 Lawrence Project"). Zocalo has pledged all of its membership interests, both currently owned and subsequently acquired, in JV 2020 Lawrence as collateral for the Colorado Energy Loan. Pursuant to an authorizing resolution adopted by the members of JV 2020 Lawrence, Zocalo will advance the proceeds of the Colorado Energy Loan, as received from time to time, to JV 2020 Lawrence for application to the 2020 Lawrence Project. Such advances to JV 2020 Lawrence will not be considered contributions of capital to JV 2020 Lawrence. Also, Zocalo is authorized and directed to cause JV 2020 Lawrence to repay such advances, including principal and interest, made by Zocalo at such times as required by the Colorado Energy Loan. Any payments pursuant to the authorizing resolution shall be payable only from surplus cash of the 2020 Lawrence Project as defined by U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") in the governing regulatory agreement of the primary financing on the project as describe above. If surplus cash is not available to satisfy Zocalo's payment obligations under the Colorado Energy Loan, then either Zocalo or BIR 2020 may issue a funding notice, pursuant to the JV 2020 Lawrence limited liability company agreement, for payment obligation amounts due and payable.

The Company has a $20,000,000 revolving credit facility in place with an affiliate of the Company ("Credit Facility - Affiliate"). The Credit Facility - Affiliate does not have a stated maturity date but is subject to a 60-day notice of termination provision by which the lender can affect a termination of the commitment. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no outstanding balances on the Credit Facility - Affiliate.

The Company has a Credit Facility with an unaffiliated lender, which has a maximum commitment of $45,000,000 as of June 30, 2015. The Credit Facility is used to facilitate property acquisitions and to fund the development activities of the Company. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there was $26,000,000 and $41,000,000 outstanding on the Credit Facility, respectively.

Capital Expenditures

The Company paid $921,846 and $1,551,280 in recurring capital expenditures during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Recurring capital expenditures typically include items such as appliances, carpeting, flooring, HVAC equipment, kitchen and bath cabinets, site improvements and various exterior building improvements.

The Company paid $24,492,150 and $10,362,323 in renovation-related and development capital expenditures during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Renovation-related capital expenditures generally include capital expenditures of a significant non-recurring nature, including construction management fees payable to an affiliate of the Company, where the Company expects to see a financial return on the expenditure or where the Company believes the expenditure preserves the status of a property within its submarket. Costs directly associated with the development of properties are capitalized. Additionally, the Company capitalizes interest, real estate taxes, insurance and project management/development fees. Management uses judgment to determine when a development project commences and capitalization begins and when a development project is substantially complete and capitalization ceases. Generally, most capitalization begins during the pre-construction period, defined as activities that are necessary to start the development of the property. A development is generally considered substantially complete after major construction has ended and the property is available for occupancy. For properties that are built in phases, capitalization generally ceases on each phase when it is considered substantially complete and ready for use. Costs will continue to be capitalized only on those phases under development.

On December 12, 2011, the Company executed a limited liability company agreement with an unrelated entity related to the Walnut Creek Project, a 141-unit multifamily apartment development project located in Walnut Creek, California, which is currently in development.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The Company's portfolio (the "Total Property Portfolio") consists of all properties acquired or placed in service and owned at any time during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. As a result of changes in the Total Portfolio over time, including the change in the portfolio holdings during six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, the financial statements show considerable changes in revenue and expenses from period to period. The Company does not believe that its period-to-period financial data are comparable. Therefore, the Company also presents the comparison of operating results for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 reflect changes attributable to the properties that were owned by the Company throughout each period presented (the "Same Property Portfolio").

“Net Operating Income” (“NOI”) falls within the definition of a “non-GAAP financial measure” as stated in Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure of our performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes NOI is a measure of operating results that is useful to investors to analyze the performance of a real estate company because it provides a direct measure of the operating results of the Company’s multifamily apartment communities. The Company also believes it is a useful measure to facilitate the comparison of operating performance among competitors. The calculation of NOI requires classification of income statement items between operating and non-operating expenses, where operating items include only those items of revenue and expense which are directly related to the income producing activities of the properties. We believe that to achieve a more complete understanding of the Company’s performance, NOI should be compared with our reported net income (loss). Management uses NOI to evaluate the operating results of properties without reflecting the effect of capital decisions such as the issuance of mortgage debt and investments in capital items; in turn, these capital decisions have an impact on interest expense and depreciation and amortization.

The most directly comparable financial measure of the Company’s NOI, calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, is net income (loss), shown on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, net income (loss) was $(4,485,115) and $54,062,703, respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, net income (loss) was $(8,714,144) and $50,678,923, respectively. A reconciliation of the Company’s NOI to net income (loss) for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 is presented as part of the following tables.

(Same Property Portfolio)

Revenue

Rental Revenue

Rental revenue of the Same Property Portfolio increased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 in comparison to the same period of 2014. The increase in rental revenue is mainly attributable to increase in rental rates. Average monthly rental rates for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 of $1,374 per apartment unit increased by 4.33% over the 2014 rental rates of $1,317 for the same period, contributing to an increase of approximately $606,000 in rental revenue. Average physical occupancy for the 2015 and 2014 Same Property Portfolio of 95.6% resulted in a slight increase in revenue of approximately $7,000. Market conditions remain stable in the majority of the submarkets in which the Company owns and operates apartments. Improving economic conditions and the continued strength in the apartment markets have allowed the Company to implement rent increases at properties while maintaining occupancy and retaining high quality tenants throughout the portfolio.

Utility reimbursement and other revenue

Same Property Portfolio utility reimbursement and other revenue increased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2014, due primarily to increased relet fees and parking fees.

Real Estate Taxes

Real estate taxes of the Same Property Portfolio increased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 from the comparable period of 2014 as a result of increased real estate value assessments and tax rates. The Company continues to challenge the assessed values of its properties where appropriate and appeal increases in assessed values that it considers to be unreasonable. The Company has been successful in achieving tax abatements for certain of its properties based on challenges made to the assessed values.

Management Fees

Management fees of the Same Property Portfolio increased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 as a result of an increase in total revenue of the operating properties.

Non-Operating Expenses

Depreciation

Depreciation expense of the Same Property Portfolio increased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase is a result of additions to the basis of fixed assets in the portfolio driven by normal recurring capital expenditures.

Interest, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing fees

Interest expense of the Same Property Portfolio decreased for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 over the comparable period of 2014 primarily due to change in fair value of the interest rate cap acquired related to the Company's investment in Berkshires of Columbia, a lower interest rate on the 2020 Lawrence mortgage, which was reduced to 4.45% from the previous rate of 5.00% in November 2014 and reduced principal balances at most properties as a result of mortgage principal amortization.

Comparison of the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 to the three-month period ended June 30, 2014

(Total Property Portfolio)

In addition to the revenue and expense analysis discussed with respect to the Same Property Portfolio, changes in revenue, total operating expenses and non-operating expenses of the Total Property Portfolio for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 are also due to the fluctuations in the actual properties owned during the comparative periods.

In addition to the revenue analysis discussed with respect to the Same Property Portfolio, total revenue decreased mainly due to loss in revenue from properties sold during 2014 totaling approximately $6,390,000. The decrease was partially offset by revenue from Elan Redmond Town Center of $847,000, which was acquired in December 2014, and Gatehouse 75 of $821,000, which was acquired in the first quarter of 2015.

In addition to the operating expenses analysis discussed with respect to the Same Property Portfolio, the decrease in total operating expenses was primarily attributable to expenses for properties sold during 2014 totaling approximately $2,780,000 and decreased incentive advisory fee of $1,357,000. The decrease was partially offset by increased operating expenses from Aura Prestonwood, Elan Redmond Town Center and Gatehouse 75 totaling $878,000.

In addition to the non-operating expenses analysis discussed with respect to the Same Property Portfolio, non-operating expenses decreased mainly due to decreased depreciation and interest expenses incurred at properties that were sold during 2014 totaling approximately $5,120,000 and lower interest expenses of approximately $564,000 as a result of reduced Credit Facility balance outstanding during the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 when compared to the same period ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was partially offset by increased depreciation, interest expense and amortization of acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships of Elan Redmond Town Center and Gatehouse 75 totaling approximately $1,977,000.
